- WalterBright 6y agoYes, with the 8" floppy drives, and a VT-52 clone. I gave it away to a father to give to his kid. A couple years later, I realized my mistake and asked to buy it back, but he'd thrown it in the trash :-( I still have that Heathkit terminal, but I haven't turned it on in 37 years or so, though it was in perfect working order at the time. I soldered all three kits together, and it all worked perfectly the first time I turned it on. Those were great kits. I also had a very expensive Diablo 630 daisywheel printer to go with it, built like a tank. But I couldn't give it away, and finally it went to the dump around 10 years ago. I did keep my original IBM PC, but the chips went bad in it while in storage and it won't power up anymore.
